This was a beautiful hotel! We enjoyed walking to nearby restaurants and shopping. Plus, we had our private tour pick us up right in front of the hotel. It was also within walking distance to the Aragon Ballroom, where we attended a concert.

Perfect Hotel in Chicago

I had such a wonderful stay at the Guesthouse Hotel during a recent business trip to Chicago! My flight arrived earlier than expected, and the friendly staff went above and beyond to accommodate an early check-in, which made such a difference after traveling. The entire team was exceptional, professional, and welcoming. The hotel itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and in a stunning location that made it easy to walk to so many great spots in the city. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for families or anyone traveling with more than one person, as the space and amenities are perfect for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I’m truly grateful for such a positive experience and will absolutely return on my next trip to Chicago!

A very charming, conveniently located (Andersonville) boutique hotel. The suites are large, clean, & comfortable. Take note, however, that there are NO TVs in the bedrooms. The shower water pressure was pretty weak, as well. Staff were friendly and helpful.
